        "question": "From which cities in United States can I fly to Cleveland?",
        "answer": "You can fly nonstop to Cleveland from 31 US cities, with the most frequent departures from Chicago (499 weekly flights), New York (305), and Washington, D.C. (211). Other major gateways include Atlanta, Philadelphia, Charlotte, Dallas, Denver, Boston, and Orlando, with typical flight times ranging from under an hour from Detroit to over 4.5 hours from the West Coast.

We identify every US airport with scheduled nonstop service to the destination, group them into their metropolitan areas, and rank the cities by scheduled weekly departures; the typical flight time is the median scheduled duration, and red-eye availability is flagged from scheduled local departure and arrival times.",
